Tony Hawk is now 50 too.

I just started skating again (at a sprightly 38) mainly due to eldest daughter being at scooting around age - loads easier to keep up with her. I’ve set up a 8” double kick with soft wheels to cruise around on, but I’ve also been trying out tricks. After an initial not being able to do anything at all I used to, Ive actually found stuff like heelflips and ledge stuff loads easier than I remember! My flips especially feel so much more smooth than they used to.
Now I’ve got a hankering for a longboard, though...Not sure what the moral of that story is, other than ‘skateboarding, yeah?’
Bought a sort of cruiser as at 50, I like my ankles too much but this threads reignited my interest... So cheers! Might be a bit of a dump where I live but the Town Squares ripe for an early morning ride before the serious skaters clock me.
